| | === Operation Iron Angel === |
| | As head of the Kingslayers Klayr conspired and instigated a controversial secret operation to dismantle the USC and end the war overnight. The plan involved covertly implanting an inactive AI program in the brain, and under the consciousness, of the ranger [[polemos:8th_age:characters:gloria_buella_julian_quintus|Gloria "Serenity" Quintus]], who had a previous personal relationship with the soon-to-be-immortalized [[polemos:8th_age:characters:lucius_cadius_titus|Lucius Titus]]. Serenity's location in RANGECOM was then tracked and leaked under the auspices of a false defector, allowing an opportunity for Serenity's abduction. The plan would rely on Serenity's relationship to Lucius to ensure that she would be present and within wireless range of the ascension machines during Lucius's ascension. The AI would then activate, entering the divine machine in place of Lucius. Finally the AI, designed to simulate Klayr's anger at the USC, would disrupt the consensus model of the Divine Machines and issue orders to end the war and destroy the USC from the inside. |

| | Based on the Kingslayer-leaked information [[polemos:8th_age:characters:scipio_polian|Scipio Polian]] led an assault on RANGECOM with a battalion-sized group of [[polemos:8th_age:factions:shadows|Shadows]]. Their operation to abduct Serenity was successful and left hundreds of casualties. Klayr, intending to delay rescue attempts until after the ascension ceremony, confessed the details of the plan to the rest of RANGECOM and was arrested. She unsuccessfully attempted to convince members of Seraph squad to forgo rescue, and also refused to give up tracking location that could help her rescue. |
| | |
| | During the ascension ceremony the AI activated, but for unconfirmed reasons did not inhabit the divine machine, leading to the operation's ultimate failure. Afterwards Klayr would resign as head of the Kingslayer and allow it to distance itself from her actions. Klayr would be stripped of her ranger authority and remain imprisoned for the duration of the civil war. |
